Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Connecticut's Challenge Primary: A Study in Legislative Politics
Through the years, a handful of faithful idealists agitated for the primary. In about a half-dozen towns (out of 169 cities and towns) advocates managed to get local primaries adopted either by special act of the General Assembly or by local party rules. In the growing suburban centers especially, there was a demand for primaries, probably as a consequence of the in?ux of migrants from states with primaries. Regularly the advocates implored the parties to put the primary in their platforms; legislators were cajoled into offering primary bills, and Democratic Senates twice adopted inadequate ones.
